Pashto 2

Pashto is an Iranian language of the Indo-European family. There are over 17 million speakers of Pashto, primarily in Afghanistan and Pakistan. In Afghanistan, it is one of the two official languages, and it is the native tongue of approximately 35% of the population. The other official language, Dari (Persian), is spoken by about 50%. Although Pashto is an official language of Afghanistan and a required subject in middle school, Dari is used primarily in business and higher education. As a result, most Pashtuns also speak Dari. However, many Dari speakers do not have a good command of Pashto.

Pashto is spoken as a regional language by about 17% of the population of Pakistan. It is spoken in the Northwest Frontier Province (Pakhtoonkhwa), in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), and in Balochistan. It is also used in some Pakistani cities such as Karachi and Hyderabad. Pashto, however, is not an official language in Pakistan (Urdu is the offical language), and it is not taught in the schools.

Smaller communities of speakers can be found in Northeast Iran, Tajikistan, India, and the United Arab Emirates. The major Pashto-speaking cities are Kabul, Jalalabad, Kandahar, Peshawar, and Quetta.

Pashto 2

Athough Pashto has many dialects, the three primary ones are:

•Northern - as spoken in Kabul and Jalalabad (Afghanistan) and in the Northwest Frontier Province (Pakistan);

•Southern - as spoken in Kandahar (Afganistan) and Balochistan (western Pakistan and eastern Iran);

•Central - as spoken in Wazirstan (northern Pakistan).

These three dialects are mutually intelligible. This course teaches the northern dialect as spoken in Kabul, which will be understood through all Pashto-speaking regions. Pashto is also called Pakhto, Pushto, Pukhto, Pashtu, or Pushtu. The variation in spelling reflects the different pronunciations in different regions; speakers of the northern dialect say “Pakhto” and speakers of the southern dialect say, “Pashto.” This demonstrates the primary difference between the southern dialect, which uses /sh/ and /zh/ sounds, and the northern dialect, which uses /kh/ and /gh/ sounds instead. The central dialect is more similar in pronunciation to the southern dialect; however, vocabulary differs somewhat.

Pashto 2

Pashto uses a modified version of the Arabic alphabet, with forty-six letters (some alphabet charts will list forty-five), as opposed to twenty-eight in Arabic. The first written records of Pashto date back to the 16th century. In the 18th and again in the 20th century, the script was standardized to include additional letters representing sounds specific to Pashto. Pashto does not have capital letters, but does use an adapted form of Western punctuation. Written Pashto has the following characteristics:

•It is read from right to left, except for numbers, which go from left to right.

•Pashto letters are distinguished by one, two, or three dots, which are placed above or below the letter - or, in some cases, by the lack of dots.

•As in English handwriting, most Pashto letters connect to those that follow them. However, some letters, called “non-connectors,” connect only to letters that precede them.

•When letters connect to a preceding letter, they often modify their shape, undergoing a reduction when the two are joined together.

•Some letters also modify their shape according to their position in a word - depending on whether they appear in initial, medial, or final position.

Pashto 2

• In standard written Pashto, the so-called "short vowels"—represented by diacritical marks—are usually omitted. The three “long vowels,” however—often appearing in transliteration as “aa,” “oo,” and “ee”—are separate letters and are written.

• The appearance of some letters may vary, depending on the choice of font.

The Pashto 2 Readings are based on the assumption that you have already done the Readings in Pashto I and are familiar with the sounds of the Pashto alphabet. A complete listing of the Pashto alphabet and the diacritics follows. This chart is for reference only, as all the information you need to do the readings is contained on the audio.

The Readings consist of twenty lessons that will provide practice reading words, phrases, and short sentences using familiar vocabulary as well as new vocabulary regarding useful topics such as food, colors, travel, shopping, communication, and more. Remember to always read aloud, as directed. The process of saying the words out loud will reinforce your Pashto language acquisition. Translations are provided, but we recommend that you wait to read them until after you’ve read the items, sounding them out. In these reading lessons, the “short vowel” diacritics will be included for unfamiliar words.

zwar (above letter) زور

zer (below letter) زیر

pekh (above letter) �ښ

mad (only above initial alef) مد

hamza (only in combination with waw and he) حمزه

There is another diacritic, called zwarakay, which is rarely used in Pakhto. It is shown as a horizontal line above a consonant and makes a schwa sound.

In Pashto there is a special letter combination,لا, called lam alef la, which represents the letter lam followed by alef.
